Yes its Nicos old one. And Nico did most of the work on it, tidyed it up etc. So I think its CRAP that old mate Stoney would appear to be taking the credit, along with 'zoom importers' as neither had anything to do with the car. I'll go as far to say I belive there were 2 owners after Nico before stoney bought the car.

As much as I dont like the car, as I think why make a cefiro a 2 door. I dont think it is right that others take the credit. Or at least that is the impression I got.

Just to clarify.......Yes that was my car.......Yes i did import it.....Doors and flares were welded in japan (NEVER Re-welded in OZ) BUT i did have the bodywork cut back to "start again" including re-shaping of the flares etc.

To those that are not keen on the flares.......either am I......But i LOVE the rims. It did it's job for me as far as advertising.

As far as Stoney and Zoom taking the credit.......I say let them have their 15mins of fame......if they can't do it for themselves, stealing the credit is their only option i suppose.

Good luck to them and Stoney............

PS: I wanna see him match that colour/pearl HAHAHAHAHAHA

lol nico you're a funny man.

But yeah I don't see how they're TRYING To take the credit. They just happen to have it in the article.

If they are then well I take what I said back heh either way pretty funny good on ya :)

My reasoning for those comments is because he has actually told MY WIFE, that ZOOM imported the car!!!!!! (He of course did not know it was my wife when he said it..) hahaha lol

I spoke to Troy tonight and he said he was not trying to take credit for the call at all, he was simply advertising his business as the current owner is a customer.

As for the current owners missasumption that Zoom imported the car, I don't think that has anything at all to do with Troy and his business.

just my 2c

I can only comment on the remarks that the current owner has made......As far as stoney ASSUMING zoom imported.....i find that difficult to swallow....as it had MY stickers on it when he bought it :D

Either way not an issue.........however Tony may want to change the specs for the car on his site.......even the wheels sizes are incorrect (i sent him an email to let him know but have got no response)

For the record, I am in no way upset about this.......Though i have never dealt with zoom..i have scoured their site, and their products and prices are certainly fair. I would not hesitate trading with them.

    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
    • Yes, a plan for non-action is always my first sort of plan! I'm happy to see what falls out of invision's update. I had been having some thoughts on what to do with this the other day and they all seem to have fled my memory, after various solar panel induced traumas, squeaking suspension sphericals, etc etc, over the last little bit. I'll try and recall what I had in mind and make sure that I put it into print in some form before the Alzheimer's strikes again.
    • The ability to have both a 5500 stall for launching, and a regular lockup for every other scenario is pretty sweet. Does it actually work well like that though in the real world? Would it hold up to track use and otherwise you'd never know you had a stall converter in it? If so, that's awesome
